Sorry for the long delay! Many changes over here at B&T, and that caused a delay on getting this past issue out. We hope you like the new look of the magazine. We haven’t completely settled on the new look so over time, things may change a bit more. We are working with more contributors, and have a few new regular columns (and more to come). Although it’s not evident in this new issue, we are committed to bringing you fresh and current content! And on top of that, we will be adding some online content as well. This is all very exciting for us!

I think I had been doing practices for 2 or 3 months, and I was nervous for my first bout. I remember that I had felt like throwing up because I was so nervous and excited.

 

My first bout was really fun, and it was a bit scary too, considering I hadn
